Flight 74

For some unknown reason steam is not allowing me to post a review of this game so i will leave it here. This game is very missleading when your reading about it. Features: - Realistic flight physics - Interactive cockpit. Flip switches, press buttons, manipulate levers - Incredible graphics and details that squeeze every ounce of VR power out of the Rift, Rift S, or Quest The actual features - Realistic flight physics - This game has basic flight physics. They are not realistic at all being as I am a pilot of 12 year i will say they are arcade style physics. Interactive cockpit. Flip switches, press buttons, manipulate levers. There are 2 thinks you actually use your hands for, the yoke and the throttle and the throttle is janky. its not user friendly when sitting in a chair to increase or decrease throttle. all other switches which there are about 12, you look at and hit the A button on your contoller to activate. Incredible graphics - Granted this is VR but still bareb...

Considering this is currently on pre-release and the devs have posted their update schedule which includes many new missions and features, I think this flight sim has a lot of promise! I’m already loving the freedom of the cockpit controls as it really feels like I’m flying the plane like I would in real life. I really like that ALL of the interactions in the cockpit are controlled by touch so I’m grabbing the control wheel, moving the throttle, flaps and landing gear and for good measure I’m even flicking the engine switches and pressing buttons! I thought the game actually looked better at runtime than in the screenshots although in honesty there is some room for improvement there. Also, the drama with the cartel is definitely an interesting and unique twist for this kind of game! I hope the devs continue to update this in the coming months! :)

Firstly STEAM and this game need to update the compatible headsets. This have works on Quest 2 for sure... Most Rift games do... Second I'm rocking a 3080, and there are occasional studders. I can't max out the graphics. At very nearly max they aren't any MSF 2020. Some reviews talk about changing things with your eyes plus the "A" button. May be possible, but so far I've been able to touch everything I thought should be interactive. The controls feel somewhat arcade like. There is no rudder that I've found, and my guess is that auto-rudder equals arcade feeling video game. The grip button alone doesn't grab the yolk, you have to use the trigger and the grip, this is a bit tiring, and I don't know why they did it... Would have been nice to know before I crashed over and over because my hands went right through the yolk. They have you fly through hoops that don't appear very quickly leaving you on a timed mission with no idea where to go until you may already be going the wrong way... O...

Enjoyable to play as an arcade style flight simulator. Not much freedom for free flight nor is there much room for exploration. The fun comes from the missions, but there's only like 8 of them? More maps would be fun. More objectives as well. The full price just seems too much.. This is something you would go play at an arcade VR machine and put $5 in and play for 15 minutes and prob not come back to play it again because you don't feel the any pull towards the game.

There need to be more games like this for VR. It's a bit of GTA meets Flight Simulator. Ok, it's not quite as crazy as that, but it's close. I applaud the developers on the theme and story of the game, there's nothing quite like it. The objects in the cockpit are an awesome touch as well! I just unlocked the revolver, pretty cool.

The game is fun so far, but don't expect physics or controls to be realistic, I flight planes in real life so I know what I can expect to feel like real, for a game like this I do not expect it to simulate all the complex physics that develop in real flight, this is more like an arcade game so that is fine, also don't expect a G1000, check the screenshots of the cockpit, it is currently in development so I'm sure many things will be improved along the way. Graphics are nice enough to be immersive and have fun.

Don't waste your money. No positives about this game at all.

Flight 74 has been quite enjoyable to play so far, not only do the missions require you to perform evasive manoeuvres and crazy tasks, but the whole game has been made to a high standard. The controls and feel for the game are excellent, there's a lot of haptic feedback in the controllers, and despite being mostly seated in the plane, I didn't once feel motion sick. This is a big plus for me as I was using an Oculus Quest 2 with a cable to play this game, and a lot of times I get motion sick easily from using the headset. The only downside to this game is the graphics, however, I believe this to be down to the limited resolution of my headset and graphics settings to be on equivalent-to-medium. If I was able to run the game on full settings, I'm certain that it would look excellent (as can be seen in the game's screenshots). I highly recommend anyone to try this game, it's a lot of fun and a unique VR experience for any age group.

So at a glance, this looks alright and I have some hopes for the future. But sadly at the moment it has issues with tracking, and missions at times I will clearly complete them but will still register as a fail for what I cannot discern is any good reason. No feedback as to why I failed whatsoever.

its cool.. it teaches you surivval techniques, like how to break t he glass with your phone so that all the sm oke may exit the cockpit instead of you dying from smoke inhalation.
